Simple Truths

-I think of you at great length, every single day of my life.

-From the day I made you quit your crap and trash it all, just to have the chance to hang out with me & you willingly did it, I have never questioned the strength of your feelings for me.

-To counter that, though, there HAVE been times that I've questioned the truth and/or sincerity of your feelings, and of your motives even more.

-You have been the driving force behind some of THE most wonderful things in my life.

-I'm praying a desperate prayer, from the toes of my soul, every single day, that you realize/accept/decide in the next 4 years that you want more kids, just like I already know that I do, with the very essence of my being.

-Speaking of kids, you have given me the 2 most beautiful children I could've ever dreamed of.

-No one I have ever knows before has been able to make me feel like the only person in the world that matters, while still reminding me that other people are just as important in the grand scheme of things.

-You've always loved me for me, never expected (or liked) me to paint my face and dress up when we go out, rather preferring I just wear what's comfortable and real.

-You can always see through my lies, even if I swear up and down I'm telling the truth.

-Even though you sometimes push too hard, trying to get me to talk about what's bothering me and I push you away, you're always there to listen when I'm ready to talk, and will apologize for just about anything I'm upset about - even if it's by no means your fault.

-Your real smile - the one that lights up your eyes and makes your skin sing a song of delight - is enough to get me through some of our darkest times, just because I know that when we come out on the other side and things get better, I'll get to see that smile again and all will be right in the world.

-We've made it through some of the hardest things in life, together, as young as we are - things that've ruined relationships for older, "wiser" people - even when everybody told us it would all fall apart at our feet because we're "too young to really know what love is all about." No matter how hard things got for us, our love guided us through, and I don't think anyone will ever totally understand. I think that being as young as we are gave us a huge advantage in that we haven't had enough time to experience love not being enough, so we had no doubts that our love would be strong enough.

-You are absolutely the love of my life, and right now that is all that I need to know to get through my life.
